March News and other trinkets.
March is nearly behind us and spring popped over. We’ve had quite a bit of “Giboulées”. That French word (from Belgium?) describes the typical weather of March. The facetious one where you get warm sunny weather two hours then snow, rain and hail all at the same time the next one.
On the art front it was quite a poor month. Though I did went on a museum date and doodled a bit here and there.
Many photo were taken due to the sheer amount of gorgeous vegetation waltzing around every corner and every paths. After the snow drops shied away, the Magnolia had big reveals and were welcomed by weeks of sunny weather before March remember he was supposed to rain and all…
My visit to Meise Botanical Garden may also be responsible for the amount of picture I took… But Botanical gardens are such treasure troves!
I had a lot of sweet craving and baked an audacious amount of cakes to go with my tea, went bird tracking with my new favorite app “Merlin birds” which record their songs and tell you who’s who (amongst other things). I also had my traditional tea-time in the nature with good company to celebrate the season.
On the music side I’ve been obsessed with Miki’s song: “ça pik un peu quand même”. and I keep coming back to November Ultra’s live session at radio Nova’s “chambre noire”.
I also love what Paris Paloma has been up to.
I’ve finished reading “Un jeudi saveur chocolat” by Michiko Aoyama translated to French by Alice Hureau. It wasn’t ground breaking but it was very soft and comforting.
During my museum date I (re)discovered Folon’s art. I mostly knew his watercolor but he did silkscreen printing and other type of traditional print. I was very fond of his small crafty statues with silly faces.
See ya next post!
